He just upgraded to 65" tall tires from a tractor. He built this thing in his backyard.

Motors are stock on both trucks, just geared properly.

Those are ridiculous! So sick!

Thats sweet! +1 How do you get into those?

That's badass haha...there's a vid on youtube of a nasty 2500 Cummins mud truck that I'd kill for :jester:.

dear god

Wow go big or go home lol

I like lifted trucks, those are a little too extreme for me but I can appreciate the work thats been done to them and the fact that their not mall crawlers :mullet:.

 

[Fast360Dak]

I was suppose to go to an event this weekend with them, but I get to help move my girl into her new house instead...lol

There will be more though.

I'm sure this is fairly obvious, but since I don't know anything about lifting trucks like that...

Why is there a disc brake right over the diff in the rear?
I should say I understand it's for braking, but is there no drums or discs?

 

[Fast360Dak]

Its easier to stop all that weight with the brake there instead of out on the axles. Im sure there is a much better explaination to it than that though..lol
I think its easier on parts too.

The professional monster trucks do it that way to.

 

[Fast360Dak]

That and I also dont think anyone makes a "disk brake kit" for 5 ton axles?

I can ask him..brb

 

[Cbrown]

Brap!

those tires are dual purpose.
they function as both a tire and a nice ladder.

there 2.5 ton rockwell (military) axles. there are no brakes on the hubs it slows down the drive train rather then the wheels.

 

[Fast360Dak]

Here are the axles when he bought them. They still had the "stawk" drum brakes.

Agree!

Some people just have to much money :huh:

When you have to start buying tractor tires instead of mudders, your to big!

LOL..I bet he has less money in this truck than I do mine.

I'm sure the tractor tires are more functional than the mud tires considering the stuff these guys play in.
